Hari Hari! Kṛpā Kari Rākha Nija Pade
O Lord Hari, O Lord Hari, please give me shelter at Your feet. Lust and anger are the leaders of the group of six men who impell me to wander here and there in the attempt to enjoy varieties of sense-gratification.
I am full of material desires and I have become the servant of material illusion. My memory of You has fled far asay. Disguised as a Vaisnava I wander from house to house, motivated by the desire to accumulate wealth.
In this town of Vraja, which is situated beyond all these sufferings, You have tied me about the neck with your rope of mercy. Seeing this outrage, the illusory energy loosened those ropes and again threw my into the well of material existence.
If You are again merciful, You will grasp this person by the hair, pull him out of illusion's well, and lift him up into the abode of Vraja. Only then will he see his good fortune; otherwise his life is lost. So says the poor and fallen Narottama dasa.
